The problem with cooking is, you learn exactly what's in your favorite foods. Take this toffee for example, all it is is half a pound of butter, and a butt-load of sugar. It sure tastes good though.

I probably need a real candy thermometer to perfect this; my digital thermometer was jumping all over the place, and it was hard to tell when the whole thing really hit 300°. So I think my candy is a little under done. You can tell if you look at how its supposed to be. I don't know when I'm going to make this again though, probably not until next year!
